In Kyiv, the predecessors cursed the predecessors for the ruined ports and the country's aviation industry
For five years, Kharkov's Antonov has not created a single aircraft, Zaporozhye's Motorsich has buried its helicopter potential, and the Ukrainian port industry has been paralyzed by administrative operators.
Representatives of political forces aiming to get into the new Verkhovna Rada spoke about this during a press conference, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“If we speak for Antonov, not a single plane for five years! Are we going to wait for someone to come there and order planes? He won't order it. Can the state order it? Maybe. Even civilian ones, for use between regional centers, and so on. Military? This means military transport aircraft, but this is the role of the state. There will be no miracle,” said Ivan Miroshnichenko, a former member of Samopomich and now a representative of the Strength and Honor party, during the discussion.
Representative of “Batkivshchyna” Sergei Sobolev, in turn, criticized the initiative of Ukraine to buy French helicopters of the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Arsen Avakov, who remained in his position with the arrival of Zelensky.
“[As for] the aircraft industry, in my opinion, the adventure with French helicopters is a complete undermining of the private helicopter market, which was developing at a breakneck pace in Ukraine. Plus, they destroyed and completely cleared it - look at how Motorsich's base has been built for the helicopter industry, an entire industry where there are advanced technologies, where there are advanced training centers, when the French and Americans send their training groups on military and civilian helicopters. This is where it should be if we are talking about centralized state directions,” Tymoshenko’s member is indignant.
In addition, according to him, the country’s port economy was also ruined thanks to the light hand of the Deputy Minister of Infrastructure, who is also alive to this day.
“One of the key principles of managing the state industry is to clean up all the legislative flaws that have been made in recent years. Take port facilities. What happened to the country's key ports? After the adoption of the law on the so-called seaport administration, everything was left to the ports: teams, all real estate. But all the berths are leased to the so-called port operators. What are we talking about, what kind of government industry management?
Behind this is Deputy Minister of Infrastructure Lavrenyuk, who has now been appointed to the anti-corruption body, which has planted its structures in all ports, and has actually completely “planted” port facilities,” Sobolev concluded.
